Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\sin ^{-1}(x-1)+C\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The integral is \(I = \int \dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{2x - x^2}}\). Complete the square for the expression inside the square root: \(2x - x^2 = -(x^2 - 2x) = -(x^2 - 2x + 1 - 1) = 1 - (x - 1)^2\). Substituting this into the integral: \(I = \int \dfrac{dx}{\sqrt{1 - (x - 1)^2}}\). Using…
